Instructions
Cook the rice
- Rinse the rice under cool water for about a minute or until it runs clear.
- Next cook the rice per the package directions, on the stove top or in a rice cooker.
- After cooking the rice, place it in a large bowl and add the rice wine vinegar, sugar and salt and stir to combine.
Make the Bang Bang Sauce
- In a large bowl, add the sweet chili sauce, mayonnaise, and lime juice and mix to combine.
Cook the Shrimp
- Add the flour and cornstarch to a large bowl and then add the shelled shrimp and toss until the shrimp are lightly coated.
- Add the oil to a large pan and heat over medium-high heat.
- When the oil is hot, add the shrimp in a single layer so the pan is not crowded. Work in batches if necessary.

- Immediately add the cooked shrimp to the bowl of bang bang sauce and toss to combine.
Assemble the bowls

- Add a tablespoon of sriracha sauce if you'd like a little more spiciness.
